Salted Dark Chocolate Bourbon Fudge Recipe

If you love the intense chocolate flavor of dark chocolate but are not a fan of the bitterness, you will love this fudge. It has the rich, feel good, intense chocolate taste but way sweeter, thanks to the condensed milk. Also, it is boozy, so that a plus! You can skip the booze… but why would you!? The sea salt not only brings out the flavor of the chocolate and makes everything taste a bit brighter, but it also provides a delicious crunch.

Fudge is extremely popular due to how easy it is to adjust and make new flavors. It is amazing all the flavors of fudge you can find, and some people can be quite creative with it.

Whether you are making fudge for the holidays, a gift, or simply as a lovely confection to have in your home, this Salted Dark Chocolate Bourbon Fudge Recipe is one you will want to make and share again and again with your friends, family, and coworkers.

Tips and variations for making this Salted Dark Chocolate Bourbon Fudge Recipe:

● You can eliminate the bourbon if you like. I don’t recommend that, but you can do it.
● If you are not a fan of dark chocolate, feel free to use semi-sweet or even milk chocolate.
● If you plan on making 36 servings, that is cutting 6 rows x 6 rows. If you plan on making 25 servings, that is cutting 5 rows by 5 rows.

● Place one sheet of parchment paper across the pan. Place the second sheet of parchment paper across the first sheet (to form an +).
● It is best if the rest of the ingredients are not altered as they specifically complement or counteract each other in the perfect manner. I would not be able to offer any other suggestions as substitutions that would work in the same manner.
● Fudge can be stored in the fridge or freezer in an airtight container. It will last up to two weeks in either situation. Fudge should never be stored at room temperature due to its ingredients.
